What does the Netflix series Unorthodox get right about those who leave Hasidic Communities?

Join Professor Zalman Newfield to discuss what the popular Netflix series Unorthodox got right in its portrayal of this insular community and those who leave it -- and what did the series exaggerate or miss? 

Zalman Newfield, an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Borough of Manhattan Community College (CUNY), will share some insights about the hit Netflix series, Unorthodox. This program also includes Q&A. 

Newfield is uniquely qualified to discuss the Unorthodox series. As a young adult, he left his ultra-Orthodox community and set out to create a new life for himself. Contact Beth at education@bethisraelcenter.org for more information and the Zoom participation link.
